NEW DELHI: Skoda Auto India today said it will increase prices across its entire model range by up to Rs 35,000 from March 1 to pass on the impact of customs duties announced in the Union budget.

"Effective March 1, Skoda Auto India will only increase prices by 1 percent which translates to an increase of Rs 10,000 to Rs 35,000 across the entire model range," Skoda Auto India said in a statement.

It further said, "The multi-step price increase will range between 3 percent to 4 percent depending on the product and variant in the Skoda model range.
